In Black 2 & White 2, you will be able to find a few rare Pokémon dotted around the areas of Unova. When you capture these Pokémon, you will learn that they were once under the control of the trainer N. Upon entry in battle, they have a special sound and are surrounding by a ring of green/yellow diamonds. Unfortunately, N's Pokémon can't be shiny.

This animation was lost when Pokémon were sent to Pokémon X & Y.

In Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire, a brand new entry animation was added. This animation is added to Pokémon if they have won the Master Rank Contests in every category: Beautiful, Coolness, Cuteness, Cleverness and Toughness. This is also denoted by the Contest Star Ribbon. Upon entry into battle, the Pokémon will sparkle for a little and have a red ribbon hover over it while the overworld goes briefly darker.
